Released in September 1996, ‘Bilingual' was the sixth studio album to be released by Pet Shop Boys. It was a UK top five record upon release and included five singles, all of which were UK top 20 singles. Much of ‘Bilingual' was influenced by the music of Latin America which Neil and Chris has been exposed to on a tour of that region.
Some of the album was produced by PSB while five tracks were co-produced by Chris Porter, two by Danny Tenaglia and one by K-klass. It has since gained platinum certification in Spain, and Gold in the UK. This ‘Catalogue' release of ‘Bilingual' includes a Further listening CD of bonus tracks, with previously-unreleased new versions of ‘Discoteca' and ‘A red letter day'.
